All 553 base cards are available in the following parallels.

  • Gold Medallion
  • Platinum Medallion

NOTES

  • In order to give their parallels a unique "identity," Gold and Platinum Medallion cards feature different photos than the corresponding base cards.
  • Each parallel is sequentially-numbered with either a "G" (Gold Medallion) or "P" (Platinum Medallion) prefix.
  • The announced production run for each Platinum Medallion card varied by series. Series One Platinum Medallions had a print run of less than 200 copies and Series Two Platinum Medallions had a print run of less than 150 copies. None of these cards are serial-numbered.
  • Series Two Platinum Medallions are exclusive to Hobby packs.

Hideki Irabu Commemorative

This seven-card set was inserted exclusively into Series Two packs intended for sale in Asia. While intended to the Asian market, they never made the trip over and packs wound up being given away at Los Angeles Dodgers home games.

The set consists of three 5" X 7" cards that were inserted into boxes as a box loader and four standard-sized cards that were inserted into packs. With the exception of these Irabu inserts, these packs are indistinguishable from the standard Series Two packs.

Each of the oversized cards is serial-numbered to 2750 copies while the four standard-sized cards are numbered to 500 copies.

  • C1 Hideki Irabu 5 X 7 2750
  • C2 Hideki Irabu 5 X 7 2750
  • C3 Hideki Irabu 5 X 7 2750
  • C4 Hideki Irabu
